Summer Camp

AOK Summer Camp provides youth (grades K–5) with the opportunities to be physically and mentally active and enjoy a nutritious breakfast, lunch and afternoon snack, all while having a great time!

Educational activities include art, reading and social skills. In addition, all campers attend the Wednesday Matinee at Lamar’s historic Plaza Theatre.
